Last weekend in Israel after Sar-El

Friday 25.2. Flea market in Yafo. What do they think, who is going to buy that crap. Only reason I went there is because it is right next to our hostel.

Best chocolate cake ever! Oh shoot I forgot the name of this place, but it is first beach restaurant in Yafo. There are couple of them right next to sea, but this one is first one of them when walking from Tel Aviv towards Yafo. Place is almost every time full.

Walk along the beach.
Later that evening my friend was really sick and had a high fever. So I left her suffering alone and went out to have fun. Oh, I'm bad.


Beit Oded free Sar-El hostel.
Scenery from Beit Oded's roof:

Saturday 26.2. It was really windy morning! I did crab few fellow volunteers with me and went for a walk in Yafo.

Old Yafo.

Yafo port. Definitely worth visit!
Go to the wave breaker! You will love it!
Especially when it is that windy. Sound of the pounding sea is amazing.

Taste the salt in your mouth!

Be careful now. Watch your skirt.
Old Jaffa hostel.
Until we meet again.

Getting drunk in some dark, dark, dark bar.
Sunday 27.2. Last day in Israel and sun was really warm already in the morning. I sat on the hostel roof talking with other residents until I was nice and red. I wont go back to cold and dark Finland looking pale.

Loveat cafe near Carmel market. I love this cafe! Now it looks empty, but it is not.
Near Carmel market. It stinks! Man fed the cats, he had cart full of these smelly goodies. Pieces of meat and bones. How lovely.
Cats all over.
Monday 28.2. We had to live to the airport at ridiculous time. Taxi was 150 shekels. Security checks were thorough. Interviews, scans, unpack bags, interviews, repack bags, escorts. Another scans and interviews, take off shoes, scans. My passport check took ages, I have no idea why. I was happy to tell about Sar-El volunteer program and they were like "oooh" and "wow".

Finally all clear. I bought this nice book, Torah stories in English.
Morning prayers.
